The Pit Boss Triple IPA Returns for Pair O’ Dice Brewing

Pair O’ Dice Brewing Company (Clearwater, Florida) recently announced that The Pit Boss Triple IPA will make a limited return beginning on Friday, December 2.

Florida hop heads, take notice! Pair O’ Dice Brewing has brewed up a new batch of The Pit Boss Triple IPA just for you. With a hop bill comprised of Amarillo, Apollo, Chinook, Mosaic and Simcoe hops, this juicy Imperial India Pale Ale was brewed with “more than 4 pounds of hops per barrel.” This heavy-handed punch of hops “delivers an enormous amount of citrus and tropical fruit aromas and flavors followed by some resinous, dank goodness.” Not to be trifled with, The Pit Boss weighs in at an intimidating 11.5% ABV and 125 IBUs.

“I love IPAs and The Pit Boss Triple IPA is my masterpiece.” says Pair O’ Dice’s Head Brewer, Ken Rosenthal. “When I opened Pair O’ Dice Brewing 3 years ago, I was inspired to bring fresh, hoppy, west coast style IPAs to Florida. As new hops varieties become available and the IPA market changes I’ve taken inspiration from the northeast as well. The Pit Boss Triple IPA blends the clean, hoppy, light bodied west coast imperial IPA with the juicy and fruity IPAs of New England. There is a distinct citrus and tropical fruit profile that I love about this beer. It tastes like hop candy and it’s a delicious damn imperial IPA.”

Pair O’ Dice Brewing will officially release this batch of The Pit Boss Triple IPA at the brewery on Friday, December 2 at 4 p.m. During this release event, The Pit Boss will be available for purchase in 4-packs of cans for $19.99 each (plus tax). Cans will only be available at the brewery, but this offering will see limited distribution on draft at “select craft beer retailers in Florida starting Monday, December 5th.” If hops are your thing, you better make plans now to get your fix with The Pit Boss Triple IPA and Pair O’ Dice Brewing Company. Prost!
